lovely links...

Since I'll be well & truly into my trip by the time this post appears, I thought I'd run with a travel theme...

Beaches, rainforests & good food in Queensland.

Beautiful New Zealand 1 | 2 | 3

Memories of an European adventure.

A walk in the jungle.

Lovely, lovely spring time London 1 | 2 | 3 + here too.

Paris is so beautiful, especially in spring (it kind of blows my mind that I will have been there by the time this posts).

Colourful Milan.

One morning in New York.

Mist, mountains & lakes 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

& hopefully by now there is a travel photo or two over on my tumblr.

recently...

...we've had beautifully mild autumnal weather, followed by what feels like an abrupt drop into wintry temperatures (apparently the other day was the coldest May day on record), although the rain was most welcome...

...most of my time/thoughts/energy has been taken up by my upcoming trip - I leave on Tuesday!...

...spent a lovely day in town with my godmother - talking, browsing, wandering, having coffee & cake, doing a little shopping - she lives in the US so it's always special when we get to catch up with her...

...made a tumblr, to share travel photos + other bits & pieces...

...another Flinders Street Market, Wirrabara Producers Market on Easter Sunday, plus my first Bubblegum Market...

...have done a bit of getting out & about, taking advantage of the beautiful time of year to do some exploring - a day at Alligator Gorge & a peaceful morning in a forest...

...plenty of things happening, so not much baking recently - a batch of muffins, scones to take to the forest (although that was Mum's doing) & I enjoyed my piece of Kathryn's first attempt at an angel food cake...

...tangle cards & a little bit of jewellery...

...& a gorgeously foggy morning.

in a fog...

One morning last month we woke to a quiet, fog-shrouded town - beautiful & slightly eerie. Kathryn was already out with the camera & once she was done, I went for a meander around the yard to take some photos of my own...

a few good things...

1. Miss Holly - she's a few good things, all by herself.

2. some salvia, providing a nice pop of colour in the garden.

3. Happy Birthday to my beautiful Mum - Amy made an awesome cake as part of our celebrations.
4. new (purple) walking shoes.

5. foggy, misty mornings.

6. dreams & schemes & plans - trying to get things organised.
7. a soft knit sweater & some colourful tank tops.
